The Arteon is arguably one of the most stylish models Volkswagen has in its current line-up. The four-door coupe successfully blends the practicality and dependability of a Passat with a much sleeker fastback design. Now, VW has revealed an updated version with design tweaks, a more refined cabin and an R variant. Image Credit: Supplied

The cabin has also seen a major upgrade in refinement. In fact, if this interior points to the direction VW cabins in all future models will take, that’s good news. It’s almost Audi-ish in its fit, finish and layout. A light strip that runs along the dash and the translucent light panels on the doors add to the overall ambience. Image Credit: Supplied

Volkswagen has introduced a sportier R variant to the Arteon, with 320 horsepower from the 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo engine, which makes 268 horsepower in the regular Arteon. Image Credit: Supplied
